Yes, I am still plugging away at Project Life. And I had good intentions to post this latest spread over the weekend. But all these other activities like a hot air balloon launch, 12-mile run, town fair, and backyard barbeque popped up and they sounded like more fun than blogging Project Life so I opted to do those instead. Though I guess I should clarify that the 12-mile run was not really fun at all. In fact, it kinda sucked.
But now it's Wednesday and I'm back. Don't ask me what happened to Monday and Tuesday. Because when it's the last week of school, and you're trying to make teacher gifts, attend end-of-year festivities, pack your kids (and dog!) for a trip to Nana's, pack yourself for a Memorial Day weekend wedding trip, and your husband is out of town...well, days tend to disappear rapidly. Along with much of your sanity.
But enough about me and my (lack of) sanity! On with PROJECT LIFE! Here's what I've got for Week 11. And let's just try to ignore the elephant in the room marching around carrying a sign that says "YOU ARE NOW ONLY 10 WEEKS BEHIND!" Stupid elephant.
S U P P L I E S :
Most of the supplies were leftovers from my JBS Mercantile kits, and I used a lot of the Echo Park goodies that were in the Project Kit this month. I like using kit scraps for these spreads, because everything is already coordinated and I spend less time searching my stash for matching items. The less thinking I have to do, the better!
This week included Mike's birthday, so I added an 8.5 x 11 insert with photos from that celebration and included part of a birthday card in the center square:
I also included an insert to hold additional birthday cards and memorabilia. I cut an 8.5 x 11 page protector in half and decorated the top edge with border stickers. I added a stamped circle tag and camera sticker and it nicely holds things that didn't fit on the other pages:
And now I'm off to finish those teacher gifts! Look for a post on these later this week (if I don't get distracted, of course!)
